#crap — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #crap, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Just came across two #AI #slop country music artists: Cain Walker and Breakin Rust. Both of these “artists” use entirely AI-generated #CRAP images and offer AI-generated songs.

    And…people are subscribing to them and listening? Or is this simply bot-farmed engagement?

    Sigh.

    It's all crap.
    Living is crap.
    #Life has no meaning.
    None. Nowhere to be found.

  19. Remember twitter? It was a place to talk with a few problems, then the Nazi Musk used Saudi money to seize it.

    Tiktok has just been seized by another Musk, Trump arranged it, a more dedicated Nazi.

    Save self government, kick racism in the nuts, piss off Trump, protect democracy, and help a billionaire loose money. Get off tiktok, dont post tivktok, dont boost tiktok

  23. The Epson ET 4800 is a complete and total piece of garbage. The document feeder is non functional and never has worked for shite.

  24. I remember when you went #shopping for something with a list of features you wanted the product to have not a list of #crap you did not want it to have.

  25. Ah, it's that time of the week where iOS apps run at 5% of the normal speed when launched from Xcode. Normally starting and loading all data takes a couple seconds, not it takes over a minute. Same with any interactions, everything is glacially slow. So it's a dance of rooting everything, restarting Xcode, applying updates and hoping for a good moon phase. I wonder why Apple never fixes these annoying bugs?

  28. If you plan to buy a #PV: Please do not use #SolarEdge.
    The products are generally okayish, but the customer #support is total #crap. I can’t tell if there is too much AI, outsourcing, greed or brain drain involved. It just sucks.

    Today I got a message into an „non-technical invoice ticket“: „we upgraded your firmware, it everything running okay?“.

    Well, until then everything _was_ running okay. At 15h today the Smart-Meter went silent…

  32. Along the NSW and Queensland coast there are stunning beaches lined with multi-million-dollar homes and polluted creeks

    "Burgess Creek runs from Noosa Junction to the beachfront. Burgess Creek runs 5 kilometres from heavily commercialised Noosa Junction to the otherwise idyllic beachfront, and contains signs warning against swimming and human consumption. Burgess Creek does contain treated sewage effluent. Signs indicate "creek water contains treated sewage effluent", but compounding issues include fertiliser run-off, historic landfill sites, erosion, invasive flora, animal excrement and household run-off."

    "When they took the sewage out to sea, it was a revelation because there was no more crap coming back on to the beach."

  34. When building electronics project for permanent use - i.e. after testing on a solderless breadboard - you normally go to a #soldered perforated board of some type as a #prototype, or even for very-low-volume production.

    There are different types of boards. I dislike "matrix" boards, which are just isolated pads on a grid, i.e. there are no connections between any of them. Some people swear by these; I swear at them.

    I prefer protoboards that have multiple holes per pad (so you can connect multiple component leads without having to add an explicit wire jumper). If they've also got #busses - sets of pads that run the whole length or width of the board - so much the better!

    Some are #crap: laminated paper PCBs where the pads lift off the board if you even try to desolder something you added. Row/column labels missing, or (like I found with some recently) that don't line up between the front and back of the board 😆 , or most egregiously, they don't actually show the pad pattern on the front of the board, so you have to keep flipping it to check your parts are correctly placed. One example below.

    I have some from "BusBoard Prototype Systems" that I like. The SB4 is a 38 x 24 (912 hole) board that is #snappable into quarters. Two of the quarters have rows that are 4-hole, 2-hole, 4-hole. The other two are 5 2-hole pads. Both types have a single bus running along each of the 2 long sides.

    But ...

    “He did #crap the bed today,” Jennings said. “The only question is whether he’s gonna roll around in it or get up and change the sheets.”

    Trump attacked the #journalists #hosting the #event, claimed #VicePresident #KamalaHarris “happened to turn #Black” only a couple of years ago, and declared himself the best #president for #Black #Americans since #AbrahamLincoln, among other things.
